In November, Microsoft dropped the news that it's doing away with unlimited storage for Office 365 subscribers. Instead, the storage will be capped at 1TB.
Expectedly, this created an uproar, but also in that announcement was Microsoft's decision to drop the free tier from 15GB to 5GB. While Microsoft isn’t going to reverse both (business) decisions, it has now agreed to let existing OneDrive users who have 15GB of free cloud storage and 15GB of camera roll storage to keep them, instead of downgrading them to 5GB.
However, to take advantage of this ‘offer’, you need to sign in to your Microsoft account and opt in at this page. (Yup, those who don't surf tech sites are unlikely to know about this.) Which sounds to me like Microsoft is trying to minimize the number of people taking up this offer. Come on!
You know Microsoft, I'm not sure if I should trust you.
